One group from each performance space will be featured on the Saturday evening concert. The clinicians in that space will select that group. Please mark on your seating chart whether or not you would like your group to be considered. Each selected group will perform 1-2 pieces (please limit to 10 minutes total) as part of the festival’s featured concert. Directors will be notified if their group has been selected by approximately 5:15 pm. The groups should then be ready to perform by approximately 6:00 pm.
OUTSTANDING SOLOISTS
Clinicians will also be listening for a small number of outstanding soloists to showcase during the Saturday evening concert. Once soloists are selected, their directors will be notified by approximately 5:15 pm. Soloists should join the University of Oregon Jazz Ensemble in the warm-up room by 6:00 pm. They will be featured on either a Blues in Bb or a Blues in F during the Oregon Jazz Ensemble set, which will be starting around 6:30 pm.
Directors – please plan on meeting in Beall Hall at 5 pm for the announcement regarding selected groups and outstanding soloists, and keep your cell phones nearby for a text message or phone call notifying you in the case your group has been chosen for this opportunity! If your group has been chosen to perform, please respond to confirm that you’re willing and able! You and your students will then be directed to the warm-up room and escorted to the performance space at the appropriate time.
